As far as the tickets for the first Test between India and England are concerned, there is no such available option for fans as the match will be played behind closed doors as a “preventive measure” keeping in mind the COVID-19 pandemic.
With this match being the first international match played in India after more than a year, administrators were unlikely to take a risk regarding inviting spectators even with a restricted capacity.
